During his address at the Combined Commanders\' Conference 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasised the need for an atmosphere of peace and security that is essential for India to achieve its goals of economic development and his Government has focused on creating a favourable external environment and strengthening India\'s security.
PM Modi added that domination of cyberspace will become increasingly important and control of space may become as critical as that of land, air, and sea.
Professor MD Nalapat, speaking to Niti Central, says that the decision of PM Modi emphasising the need for space defence is heartening and the need of the hour. He says that Modi is a 21st century leader. Indian Defence planning has been largely that of 20th century where we have concentrated on tanks, manned aircraft. But today missiles are very important.
New trends in war have been continuously neglected in favour of conventional weapons that were used to fight the second world war.
He adds that drone technology is a befitting example of putting modern technology to good use. US is using drones excessively in its battles, for intelligence gathering, for pin point assault. In a war of the future, with enemies such as ISIS, drones are going to be as important as manned aircraft and unfortunately in India we have not paid such attention to drones.
This aspect of modern warfare has been highlighted by the Prime Minister, which is a positive step....

South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation

The South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) is an organisation of South Asian nations, founded in December 1985 by Ziaur Rahman and dedicated to economic, technological, social, and cultural development emphasising collective self-reliance. Its seven founding members are Sri Lanka, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Afghanistan joined the organization in 2007. Meetings of heads of state are usually scheduled annually; meetings of foreign secretaries, twice annually. It is headquartered in Kathmandu, Nepal.

The concept of SAARC was first adopted by Bangladesh during 1977, under the administration of President Ziaur Rahman. In the late 1970s, SAARC nations agreed upon the creation of a trade bloc consisting of South Asian countries. The idea of regional cooperation in South Asia was again mooted in May 1980. The foreign secretaries of the seven countries met for the first time in Colombo in April 1981. The Committee of the Whole, which met in Colombo in August 1985, identified five broad areas for regional cooperation. New areas of cooperation were added in the following years.
